Project 1 :
Sustainable System in a city ; The efficient city
The first assignment had us working in groups and carrying out research into two different cities that had their various differences and these were put into; RED, GREEN, BLUE and GREY INFRASTRUCTURE, in my case the two cities were Lahti and Riga: both of these are European countries that have faced different problems, with only one behind in figuring out and solving its problems and issues that could help it become more sustainable. When looking into these cities I was not only able to see the issues but also able to think outside the box during comparison to find solutions that both these cities would be able to change and find solutions that the one city could adopt from the latter
Project 2:
Sustainable City Ideas
The second assignment was more on how we thought that we could change one aspect and mine was a green city that reduced air pollution and made the city sprawl with life again. The choice of Agra, India was one made from a visit I had in 2018 and from a first hand encounter with the city. The city is known for its historical heritage in India as it is home to one of the seven wonders of the world; The Taj Mahal, but over the decades has seen its fair share of pollution from bad waste disposal.
To combat this problem my suggestion of a green city that would be built first around the city and grow inwards towards the centre was one that I thought would help prevent future deterioration of the city as this would firstly prevent more harm from the elements outside solving one problem before becoming a remedy to the rest
